She revealed: "The biggest misconception about me is that I like the media attention. I wish I could be who I am without the fame. If everyone would still buy my records and if everything would go to No.1 in 30 seconds or whateverâ€¦ that'd be great."

The 20-year-old continued: "I live without any regrets - you can't change anything, so I don't think about it. But would I ever want a 'normal' life? Yeah, there are definitely times when I wake up and wish I could go out without being photographed. I don't care if people recognise me and say 'hey', but I don't want to be stopped. I want to just walk around and see new cities."

Cyrus went on to say that she does not put pressure on herself to be a role model for young fans.

"I don't put pressure on myself to be a role model, other than hopefully inspiring people to be good and to treat people well. I'm going to be what I want, and I'm going to do what I want. When people are suffocated, that's when they end up falling off."

Speaking about her loyalty, she said: "I'm good to work with. I'm proud of that; I have a good reputation.

"I'm a really loyal person and if I dig you, I'm all the way down. But if you f**k me over, I'm all the way up. It's like, once shame on you, twice shame on me. You're the dumb one if you let someone back into your life and they s**t on you again."

When asked if she considers herself to be sexy, she added: "I'm a feminist in the way that I'm really empowering to womenâ€¦ I'm loud and funny, and not typically beautiful.

"When do I feel at my sexiest? After I've eaten something really healthy and done Pilates, and I'm wearing tight leggings. When I'm in gym clothes I actually feel sexy and healthy, so sometimes I'll stay in them all day!"
